/** Annotates the known subclasses of a type for pickling
* purposes; if this annotation is present, we consider the type
* to be 'closed' and can pickle it statically even if it isn't
* sealed. We trust this annotation completely, using it in
* preference to looking at "isSealed" or "knownDirectSubclasses"
* reflection APIs ourselves. It's fine to list only some
* subclasses of the annotated class, but not a good idea to list
* non-subclasses.
